Kuwait English School is the learning home of a very special community of students (ages 3 – 19 years), parents, educationalists, administrators and management. We all share the common aim, to ensure that each student in our care accesses the most valuable, fulfilling and enjoyable learning experiences at each stage of his/her school life. As students mature and recognise that they have special talents and skills, principally nurtured by the school’s excellent teaching staff, there are many opportunities for students to contribute to the quality of school life and take upon additional responsibilities.
The school naturally divides into four main areas each one supervised and continuously overseen and developed by four Head Teachers who, along with their staff teams, care deeply about education and the quality of life from which the pupils benefit both in and out of school.
